Poolie, that thing's gonna be murder on tires. You know? You don't need an actual trainer-tire, though they do sell them (Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Home Trainer Road Tire - Lowest Prices of the Season on Tires), but I do recommend saving your worn-out road tires to use for trainer sessions.

Just a heads-up before you ruin a good tire.

That's what I've heard. Actually not even putting my good bike on it. I knew there was a reason I kept my hybrid. I have to admit though that I missed the 'road bike' feel last night. Might have to pickup a cheap bike on CL later and use it.

Yep, it always scared me clamping my "plastic" bike in there.

So are you going to ride the 100 Miles of Nowhere on it next year? I'll probably be doing it again. (http://www.twospoke.com/forum/f114/100-miles-nowhere-6281/)

Cool, thanks for the feedback!
